Hey guys,
Just created this thread so we could all have our battery life info in once place and keep the dev thread from getting cluttered.
Please post the following info:
1. Standard or Fully Loaded version
2. Total hours unplugged and percentage
3. Details (percentage and time) for each service
4. And any pertinent details such as apps used (juice defender), or extended batterys
Also, please don't forget to calibrate, airplane bug fix, and kill that drm.
Ex. (will edit with final time)
1. Loaded
2. Total - 8h50m @66%
3.
Display - 55m 78%
Cell standby - 8h50m 9%
Wifi - 6h40m 7%
Phone idle - 7h54m 4%
Voice - 1m 3%
4. Juice defender, setcpu @ 100/1000
Ideally we want to wait for a full drain to post stats but this is just an example. Thx guys looking forward to seeing what you all are getting.
Just installed it will get back to you in a couple of days after recalibrating my battery.
Btw, i hear Juice defender does more harm than good...

Hm I'll have to test with it on and off. I use it because I get spotty service in my house and don't want it searching for signal all the time.

Interesting. I think you are right, we are essentialy minimizing out idle drain to a certain extent. However, even activily using my phone it drans slower than stock with this rom. My next run ill try and use it all day to see what I get.

Battery drain
Hello everyone, noob here. I can't post in the development forum on this but it pertains to the battery and charge to a degree. Maybe someone here can help me in some sort of way.
I rooted and flashed the SyndicateROM Frozen yesterday, used it all day and never a hiccup. This thing is lightning fast and props to the dev's but here is the only issue I found. This morning after waking up I noticed the phone was stuck on the ACS android startup icon. I plugged in to charge last night and it's like it froze the phone when it reached full charge. Anyone else experience this?
Thanks for any help that I receive.

I think I read in the dev thread that it's a known problem with the kernel? Or maybe it was the rom... or CWM? anyways the dev's know about it. Just don't charge your phone when it's off.
Battery for me seems to be a lot better than stock, but I'm always charging here and there... today I'll let it run without charging for 4-5 hours and I'll report back. Using a lot of setCPU profiles.

Are you charging it with the power OFF? Lots of people were posting issues of freezing when charging with the battery off --- and I think the probs are related to CWM -- not the ROM. Only charge while the phone is on -- and you should not see problems.
I put on to charge with the power on last night because I had set the alarm to wake me up and it never did so that is when I noticed it. I don't think I've ever charged it with the power off, even when it was stock.
Maybe the dev's will come up with a fix sometime in the future. As for now, I'm happy as hell 'cause this ROM is great.

Did this just happen once? If it doesn't happen over and over, I wouldn't consider it a bug. I have only heard of issues like you describe with the power off.
I'm looking at 12 hours on ACS Frozen on average. I haven't even gotten close to the rumored 30 hours with "heavy use" I think my use has been moderate. My battery use log only only lists display 98% and cell standby 2%. This confuses me. I do more than sit there staring at my homescreen.

How you use your phone makes a difference and while 30h is possible, I don't see it happening with heavy use unless that is little display use. Below is my most recent "heavy use" run. Basically tried to use the phone all day, xda app, browsing, mainly wifi, 0% screen brightness.
1. Loaded
2. 8h7m @5%
3.
Display - 5h33m 95% <- serious display use which kills the phone quick
Wifi - 4h56m 2%
Cell standby - 8h7m 2%
Voice - 4m30s 2%
4. Setcpu @100/1000, juicedefender, 0% brightness
Pretty good considering the insane display usage. With normal use I get over 20h so that just shows how fast it kills your battery. Going to do an "extreme" run next to include heavy cpu use (play emulators all day haha).

You did that with a standard battery? I haven't seen anyone post more than 4 hours of display "time on". That's impressive. Maybe I should try 0% brightness. I have mine at 25%. Are you on "Conservative" on SetCPU?

The 98% means that 98% of your battery use is coming from the screen. Click on where is says 98% and look at see what the use details are (the "time on"). Generally, most people are getting less than 4 hours of display time on with a single charge. The explanation is that some people stretch 4 hours of display time over 30 hours of use. In other words, the people who are getting 30 hours of use only have their screen on 10 - 15% of the time (or less).

Yes, using the standard battery. Setcpu is on conservative. I always use 0% as it looks great (kick it up tp 25-50% outside). I think I was able to get that long of display use due to minimizing cpu usage and other services. All I did is browse in dolphin and use xda app. And, that was pretty much all on wifi. Only change was the hour I was at the dog park on 3g and I recorded a 5 min video.
I bet my gaming session tomorrow will kick it down to ~4 hours
With phone calls, texting, and music player, I average between 16-18hrs. If I start to web browse or watch videos then about 8-12hrs. Very impressed with this ROM to say the least.
1. Standard
2. 31 @ 5%
3. don't have that it was yesterday
4. standard battery, auto brightness, overclocked to 1.2, wifi on when I was at home and 3g at work.
I calibrated the day after froyo dropped. I didn't do the airplane thing and I thought drm was not in this rom. So in other words I didn't do any fancy stuff.
I will note today I tried 1ghz (which is undervolted) with 4G on all day (I have a repeter on my roof at work) and after 14.5 hours I am at 30% with about the same concistancy of usage as yesterday.
Edit: I only have 1 gmail syncing right now. We will see if I get these magical numbers when I put my other 2 gmail accounts and my 3 actice sync exchange accounts on Monday.

I'm getting mixed battery life. The first day on the rom/kernel I dropped down to 79% in 9 hours, with medium use (no web browsing). I was getting 1% drop every 1-2hrs, and thought it was amazing. Today I tried to be really conservative and didn't use it at all and it dropped 4-5% every hour WHILE IDLE.
Anyone else experiencing the same problem? It seems to happen after a reboot to be honest.
NOTE: If I disable data network mode, battery life is amazing,
I'm not sure about my battery life. I charge mine differently than the average person though. I charge it at work and leave it in my desk, because I use it a lot during my lunch break or whenever I get any downtime. When I get home it's usually at about 70%, and it remains unplugged until the next day. I used to have to charge it at home and at work.
I was under the impression that the battery drain issue was fixed with new sc 2.9.2. Anyone else still having issues?

Does your battery drop to 0 that fast?
I have had a time where by battery dropped 15% within 1-2 hours, but then I was stuck on a certain percentage for hours.
Hello, I started a thread 2 weeks ago and it has some good info there. Take a look.
I update the OP regularly adding post made by others. No one has posted anything in a week. If you find how to fix your problems please post it there and I will add it to the OP. Its up to everyone to keep that thread alive.

I've had issues as well. Mine are related to GPS wakelock. Every fresh boot I will consistently get a partial wakelock of 100% because of the GPS. Simply opening Maps and closing it will force the wakelock to release.
I'm curious as to why others aren't having this issue, yet some of us are?
I've tried the EB01 modem as well as the DL09 modem and its the same results. Aside from this, battery life is great...

When you say 'idle' do you mean like zero apps running (like stopping everything running via a task killer). Then what,, like keep the phone's screen lit up by not letting it sleep and monitor the battery drain over a period of time? I'll have to try that and see how mine does. I'm guessing mine will prolly drop 15-20% as well if I have the screen lit for a solid hour.. hmm
I didnt really think mine was working 'bad' though, I just figured thats about what these batteries in these could do. I can make it though a day without a re-charge but I admit I have to budget my usage of the phone thoughout the day.. not using it for long solid periods of time and such.. If 15-20% an hour drain would be considered 'bad', how much should it drop in an hour to be considered working 'well' in your opinions?
Well I spent all day charging, using and then recharging my phone. it died in about 5:45 hrs of med to heavy use. I used the method outlined in this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=987529
I lost 5% battery in 45 min this morning which would have been nice but it was idle in my pocket. :-(
I gave up... reflashed 2.92nv and im checking to make sure its not having same issue.
If anyone has more suggestions there are now 2 pages i found for this problem specific to the facinate.
My battery is pretty decent after clearing battstats. Heavy use I'll lose about 13% per hour. Idle is decent, 3-5% per hour.
2.9.2 ec10voodoo
Ok I did a little test with mine - I set my LCD screen timeout setting to 10 minutes, turned my wifi and gps off (left the cell radio on), killed all apps that were running in task manager. Then I sat the phone down on my desk with the screen lit up and tapped the screen every 8-9 minutes or so just to keep it from going to sleep for one solid hour. I didnt do anything else with or use the phone in any way during this time. My battery dropped 18% in one hour. Think I'll try the batt stat clear procedure and redo the same test and see if its any different.
Mine is horrible. For some reason, it drains in proportion to my use. If I use it constantly, and hardly put it down, I'm lucky to only get 6 hours out of it.
I don't get decent life unless I put it in airplane mode, turn off rotation, and don't use it. Then I'm good for
16 - 18 hours.
WTF¿

I can understand getting 6 to 8 hours if your a heavy user. but Im only concerned with my idle battery use. Juicedefender help some what. you can get it on the marketplace.
I'm still having the same issue with the nonvoodoo version. I'm still not sure how some users are getting over 40 hours of battery life.
as far as I can tell recalibrating my battery had no effect on the battery life. I plan on trying to recalibrate 1 more time in case I messed up the process. I will post my results in a day or 2. good luck to the rest of you. if you find anything out that may help me or anyone else please post it here

When you charge the phone before unplugging it unlock the phone, if you don't do that the phone will not go to deep sleep state, so it will drain battery because CPU is alles the time at 200MHz

The OS needs to settle a bit, and if you did not flash at 100% your battery needs to be recalibrated which it does on its own. Drain it to 1% and charge it up to full, leaving it on there an extra hour past it saying "Charged"
Also, freeze some of the Sammy bloat
with moderated usage i managed to get i would say 14 hours till i got to 20%
seems fine runs smooth but i tweaked after that seems there is an improvement.

This is for ICS only or also for gingerbread.
So when I unplug the charger, I should first unlock the phone, and then unplug the charger?

200 is the lowest frequency that the CPU can go. The range of the CPU is 200-1400. And if the phone isn't used at all it goes to deep sleep state. So when you charge your phone till you unplug the cable it is at the 200 even the screen is black and it has no other background operation. Some how they say that when you unplug the charge cable without unlocking the phone the phone thinks it is still plugged and doesn't let the phone go to deep sleep.
Solutions: restart phone or plug it wake it up and unplug it.

So just make sure you unplug the charger once you've unlocked/waked-up the phone ?.

Please check if you have any wakelocks and also make sure that your Note acctually goes into Deep Sleep when not in use.
To check if your Note goes to Deep Sleep use:
"CPU Spy" from Google Play
To check if there are wakelocks holding your phone from getting into Deep Sleep use:
"BetterBatteryStats" - also on Google Play
Good Luck !
This might be helpful
Hey, I have the battery drain issue... I installed the BetterBatteryStats and it said that the AudioOut_1 was a partial wakelock. I found on Google that the solution was go to > Settings > Sound and Uncheck this options:
"Keytones"
"Touch sounds"
"Screen lock sound"
I have just did this, so I'm waiting to see if it works..
Sorry for my english!

To know for sure if that is the core problem you also have to interpret the numbers that BBS gives you. How many wakelocks and for how long, that considered with how long the measurment was will tell you if that is the problem.
I wouldn't say that battery life is bad.
I was on stock LC1 Open Germany (DBT) before upgrading to ICS via KIES. When i updated my note my battery was at 60%. After the upgrade finished, i lost 2% battery. Not bad at all.
I took the extra time to Factory Reset the device after ICS installation finished and downloaded every app i had again. I noticed that the Note was getting significantly more hot and was barely charging via the the PC which is to be expected, since i was on wifi downloading large files required by games such as GTA 3, riptide gp, asphalt 6 etc and the screen was on the entire time.
Right after i completed customizing the phone's and all the app settings, i charged the phone to 100% using the wall plug. Then i noticed bad battery life. The first 25% was discharged in 30 minutes.
What i did was to let the phone shut itself down, remove and reinsert the battery and charged it while it was closed till 100%. The results speak for themselves
Phone sleeps properly, i have 4 hours and 48 mins of screen on, 56 minutes of browsing on wifi, 42 minutes of music, 15 minutes calls and it currently has 10% left.
Did you charge it with the phone on or off ?. I guess it should be on. Correct ?
Played muffin knight and riptide gp for a bit. Also had a few phone calls that amounted to about 35 minutes and a good amount of web browsing. Battery seems to be draining nicely over here.

ok this is my stats. thanks for you help. what do i have to do now?
As you cn see from your screen shot
You have deep sleep as unused state
So its not going into deep sleep mode at all

I usually leave my phone on a charger for 80% of the day (I know, it's bad) but yesterday I decided not to for once. I was getting good battery life, I was down to about 70% in 12 hrs. Well, in the evening it started to suddenly drop, and I I'd isn't think much of it. An hour went by, went from 50ish% to 30%. I figured I was using it too much, another hour went by, and I get an alert that my battery is less than 10%. I picked up my phone that was playing Spotify at the time, to find it nice and warm to the touch. My instinct told me to restart it since I was on the road and no where near near a charger. It quickly cooled down and I made it to a changer in time.
Is there anyway to figure out what could have drained it, or should I just try and replicate what happened and be prepared with a wake lock detector?

I am experiencing the same crazy battery drain after upgrading to 4.4. On my Batt use, "Android System" is by far and away the highest batt drainer right now and normally its quite low. Something is amiss. I'm gonna do a factory reset. I assume its on of my apps or something not cooperating with 4.4
My phone runs quite a bit hotter after the NB1 update too. Battery life is all over the place with sometimes being good and sometimes draining way fast. I tried factory resetting and also reloading the software with the Odin version and no change.

I get about 3-4 days use from my gs4. I have a zerolemon batt with custom rom and kernel. Also use boot manager and greenify
When I got my N6P, I had expected standby time to be amazing thanks to Android Doze. My first day of use shows a lot of "awake" activity during the time when the phone is sitting on my bed side table, completely motionless.
Has anyone else had experience with their N6P doing the same? Am I doing something wrong that caused Doze to never activate?
As a frame of reference, when I went to bed the phone was at 47%. I took the screenshots when I woke up this morning.
Sorry if this is a silly question, but you have activated it haven't you?

Very frustrating reading replies that say Doze must somehow be turned on. It DOES NOT have to be turned on. It's interwoven into Marshmallow automatically.
You can tinker with battery optimizations within the phone's battery settings, but that's about it.
Note: If your phone needs to conduct maintenance (update apps over WiFi, etc.) doze may not kick in the way you think. If your phone has nothing to do and is sitting still for an extended period of time, it'll enter Doze and only sip battery.
You can try greenify beta it has aggressive doze when screen goes off, just whitelist the apps you need to notify you immediately.

Sorry, my bad. Battery optimisation is separate from doze then?
I'm seeing the same problem. 20% depleted in 7 hours overnight just sitting on my nightstand. Deep sleep in better battery stats showed 95%. Not sure what's going on.
How's your charging speed? It's nowhere close to what others are seeing. Even though it shows rapid charging, the amount of time to fully charge is high. 3 hours from 25%. 45 mins from 85% etc. Are you getting fast charging times? I can understand some process binging on my battery while running. I'm getting no more than 3 to 4 hours screen on time. But I don't understand why I would have slow charging times. But if you are also seeing slower charging time, then perhaps it could be.

That's just a feature that lets you decide what apps can override any kind of battery optimization
Lost 1% in 6 hrs last night,make sure all apps are optimised in doze setting

Looks like it could be Tasker. I'm going to uninstall it and see what happens.

Doze works great for me. For example, during the night, I only lose like 3 percent battery life. That's pretty freaking low. It's like I went to sleep at 75% and woke up at 72%. Very effective imo.
By the looks of it, doze should be on by default. Going into settings/battery/battery optimization-just shows which are optimized and which aren't. It's not an on/off thing.
The only apps I can't optimize is Android OS and dm service. What's dm service anyway

Unfortunately, that's done nothing. Lost 5% in 1 hour just sitting. BBS shows 76% in deep sleep. Screen on 1%. Awake (Screen off) 25%.
This was about 5 hours untouched on my table last night... Working fine...
The the thing I don't really like about doze is, it only works if the phone is flat on a table... Any type of movement, be it in pocket or even on the car dash, it won't come into play...

That horiztonal bar (a clear indication of Doze) just doesn't happen when leaving my phone overnight. The "awake" bars at the bottom of the battery screen in Settings is also switching on and off periodically when the phone should be dozing.
Does that mean a third-party app is the cause?

My guess is yes, some app is staying awake.
It would also explain slow charging....something is eating up CPU cycles and preventing the phone from idling down and sleeping.
It isnt just a 6P thing either....my LG G2 with numerous ROMs/kernels has occasionally experienced issues like this. Almost 100% of the time it could be traced to an app that was misbehaving. You can use a battery tracking app (GSM battery monitor, better battery stats, etc) to get more detailed info. If you arent rooted Im not sure how detailed the info can get, but its probably a lot better than the stock battery graph.
